Turning off wireless connectivity completely.
You can completely turn off the wireless portion of the router. For example, if you use your
notebook computer to wirelessly connect to your router, and you take a business trip, you
can turn off the wireless portion of the router while you are traveling. Other members of
your household who use computers connected to the router through Ethernet cables can
still use the router. To do this, clear the Enable Wireless Router Radio check box on the
Advanced Wireless Settings screen, and then click Apply.

Restrict Access by MAC Address
For increased security, you can restrict access to the wireless network to allow only specific
computers based on their MAC addresses. You can restrict access to only trusted computers
so that unknown computers cannot wirelessly connect to the Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless
Router. MAC address filtering adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network,
but the data broadcast over the wireless link is fully exposed.
